Photograph and Camera talk

[Jett129]

I had posted this picture a while ago,with the caption “If Ansel Adams had a Lensball” I like to think that at his advanced age he would have enjoyed a smaller camera that he could easily take everywhere. No to mention seeing his work immediately. When I was out at Yosemite,there was an Ansel Adams tour that took you to some of the iconic places that he shot at,but sadly it wasn’t being offered when I was out there. @NorvilleRogers

@Marc2706 I’m curious about your technique for picking subjects. Do you pick a spot and wait for the perfect opportunity, or do you take pictures that are spur of the moment (impromptu)? Love your pictures and curious what goes into some of the pictures that you have shared.

[Jett129]

@Marc2706 Love how the reflection kind of serves as a leading line to get you int the image. Like everything about it.

Some b/w fun yesterday

@goosehd thanks a lot for your kind words! Most of the pictures during my travels are taken spontaneously but I always take the weather forecast into account.

@Jett129 Thanks a lot Jett!

Right now the situation is very bad in Iran. I visited the country eight times and I always was overwhelmed by the friendliness und incredible hospitality of the Iranian people. The Iran which you see at the moment with fanatic people on the streets is the Iran of the Mullah regime but not the reality. I do not know what will happen in the future, but I miss this wonderful country with its incredible people.

As you can see, the homemade wine was so sour it nearly made my pants ride up!

@Marc2706 Thanks for the great post and the smiling faces rarely seen on the news these days. Let’s hope it ends soon!

That second shot is beautiful!

@Marc2706 love it! Great lighting and shadows

[Marc2706]

@don_pipone thanks a lot! I was very lucky because after 5 min the sun was gone

@Marc2706 I know the struggle. I love natural light photography but it can be very unpredictable mid-session.

@don_pipone schönste Stadt Bayerns (most beautiful city in Bavaria). I know exactly where you are. Used to live round the corner for 10 years

@Tago-Mago haha…you got me
Such a beautiful city. Don‘t know why I haven’t been here earlier. We should do a IH meeting here.
